Customer Reviews for Bruce Plano Natural Hickory 3/4 in. T x 5 in. W Smooth Solid Hardwood Flooring (23.5 sq.ft./Ctn)

Gorgeous hardwood at great price. This completely transformed my mom's master bedroom. This is the honey oak with high glass.Now it's a showpiece.

While most of the floor looked great, there were some burn marks on about 10 pieces that looked to be from the planer made during production

Worked perfect with leftivers

Beautiful floor. Love the wide plank!

Fantastic Product, easy to install. The boxes have enough varying sizes of pieces to reduce the need for cutting. I love it so much I will be flooring my master bedroom next. I used it on my stair landing and my L shaped bedroom hall.

Love this floor, it is so beautiful

I have in my bedroom and my living rooms aria I love it I was looking the same thing to put my dry aria bathroom I found from Home Depot I put my two bathroom loose Amazing thank you Home Depot

I am so happy with my selection of the Bruce Plano Marsh . the one negative i kept seeing was the amount of waste in some of the boxes . so I anticipated unusable pieces . I was installing close to 900 sq. Ft. Of flooring, which recommended calculated to 45 boxes . The wood Gods must have been on my side , we had ZERO bad pieces out of 39 boxes . I had 6 boxes left , so we did another room and 2 closets with the remaining boxes , and still had one box left .

Florring looks amazing.

We bought this flooring to replace the 25-year-old carpeting in our three bedrooms. We wanted to match the existing 3.25” hardwood, and this looked pretty close. We bought a total of 27 boxes in three different batches. We experienced the positives and negatives noted in previous reviews. There are lots of different colors (but we like that), varying widths (in the first batch) and quality of pieces (third batch – no tongue, shredded edges in the grooves, lots of filler). We had the advantage of having three closets, so if there were problems, we could always set boards aside and use them there. I gave this product 4 stars because I think it looks great and it's a great price. If we had stopped after the second batch, which was pretty close to perfect, I would have given it a 5. Bottom line, we would buy this again.

Looks great. Hardly any waste.

I was so happy that Home Depot still carry this brand of hardwood I had it installed 10 years ago in my living room and it still looks great. This time I had it installed in two bedroom and they look wonderful.

Discolored.

After shopping for 2 months, decided on the Bruce Plano Oak flooring - really good price. Installed 800 sq ft myself...took a lot of work and there was definitely some waste...I planned for an extra 10%, which was more than enough. Lots of smaller pieces I tried to avoid and only used where needed. Very happy with the results. Only issue, was that I planned for 4-6 week delivery, but order was somehow on processed correctly, requiring following up with HD customer service, who were amazingly helpful. Order ended up taking only an additional 2 weeks. So, it didn't blow out my plans too much. Would recommend.

It look great after completion.

I was cautiously optimistic in giving this flooring a chance. Turns out it's honestly the worst flooring I have ever used. Out of 12 boxes, around half of all the flooring is basically cut-offs about 10" long. Minor annoyance, definitely not too bad. I then came to find that the boards vary not only in depth, but width also (by as much as ⅛"). I'm not going to sand down and refinish after and I can even deal with the slightly varying depths, but the variance of the widths, especially with a majority of the pieces being short, make this hands down the worst, most difficult, and most frustrating flooring I have ever used. Guess I gotta go break open every box and sort them by width. All of the pictures are of boards picked from one box.

I took a chance on a customers floor using this product because i loce to support made in USA companies. About P of the cuts are off. You WILL HAVE GAPS. a few pieces were also very dark or very light. After contacting the company, they told me to take it up with HD. They only let you add 1 pic

Great product! My dad laid my entire 1550 home with this product. Looks amazing!

fabulous product! some of the reviews made us nervous but we decided to see for ourselves. we used Bruce engineered hardwood previously about 15 years ago and loved it. I had never installed actual hardwood before but figured I would give it a try. the install was a lot easier and went a lot faster than we anticipated. as far as other reviews, I had no waste; the rare board that had a bad spot was easily used somewhere else. the boards were very straight so I rarely had to pull any straight to nail down. just can't say enough about how happy we are with this particular hardwood.

This product is very nice quality for the money! It looks great installed and sits well with the rest of the original hardware in our home. Took 1.5-2 work days to install. Almost done photo.... just needs base molding

This product is fantastic. The color is amazing and looks super sharp. Gives the area a clean look. The quality has been top notch. Very little waste and there are many long boards. The people leaving poor reviews don’t know what they are doing #karen

This product is horrible. It took my contractors 4x as long to install as many peices were of varying widths creating unsightly gaps between the planks. Im not sure whar happened to the reviews on here as there were numerous reviews that mentioned this issue and they all seem to have dissaleared. Also, way to many small peices. Again, just avoid this product if possible.

We just completed a bedroom floor with this product. It looks awesome. Really. Went together pretty good. Not a lot of scrap. Seams look really good. It's a really good product. We installed this in our bedroom a few years ago also. Still looks great.

Floor was pre finished and absolutely beautiful!!!

I only gave this four stars because I would have most likely chosen a different floor to install given different circumstances. We already had hardwood flooring in our entry, kitchen, and breakfast area from when our house was built over 20 years ago. I'm cheap and did not want to tear that flooring out so we found this floor at Home Depot. The color and size were a near identical match to the existing floor. Installation was pretty straight forward. Our plan was to put this flooring in a living room, dining room, family room, upstairs hallway, and four bedrooms. The goal was to rid our house of carpet. We opted to install this ourselves since we had such a large area to install. We already had most of the tools we needed and were able to purchase the rest (flooring nailer, compressor, etc) for much cheaper than the cost to have it professionally installed. We have finished the living room, dining room, family room, and upstairs hallway so far. We find that we have very little waste if you take your time and plan your rows. Unlike some reviewers, in over 25 boxes, we've only found a couple of pieces to be unusable. My biggest complaint is that 2 1/4" planks are very labor intensive because their small width means you have to install over double the number of rows compared to larger width planks. We also experienced pretty low waste by laying the flooring rows out in advance to avoid cutting as much as possible. There is wide variation in character and color. I think it gives the floor a cool character.

This hardwood flooring has every flaw known to man - knots, rot, insect holes, poorly cut sipes and tongue (in case of the plank on the right, no tongue at all!). Even when it goes on sale, it's not really a deal! You'll throw out up to 60% o the box. Invest in better quality hardwood planks instead.

This is good quality real wood flooring. It has a great finish and is strong and durable for use in any high traffic area of the house. Installation can be done by DIYers as long as the installation instructions are followed closely. To get the best results the subfloor should be level and solid and the flooring acclimated for several days to a week before installation. I preferred using a manual nailer to install the flooring and took extra care to insure each plank was firmly seated in the tongue and groove with no gaps before nailing. This sometimes required prying slightly curved pieces together and using nails generously. The results were great. While this was a little wider than previous Bruce flooring I installed in our dining room and kitchen, the previous floor shown in photos are over 20 years old and have survived three kids and countless pets and still look good.

At this price, I would not complain about this mixed lot of oak wood boards. I’m satisfied with the blend of colors and lengths. We did a DIY installation and only had to discard a few boards. We compensated for the uneven shapes by using them as cut pieces. After the 600 sq ft that we installed, we had less than a box left over. Then we decided the do another room because we were so pleased with the results.

The variation in color of these wooden floor is extreme. I bought enough for five apartments. Installing the first few rooms went well until my contractor reached out to me because he was concerned that the woods color was off in certain boxes. Don’t waste your time and money on this product.

The only negative thing I could say is , I wish there were more long pieces . . Other than that , It's perfect .
